Playing a show tonight at Blackwater in so-called Portland OR, tune in to @kpsu_radio now to hear us talk about destroying white supremacy from within one of its institutions with @floatingdude . We are on tour right now thanks so much everyone for supporting and helping us and special thanks to @marcarcass#blackbrilliance <3 #decolonisenow

On this 16th day of Black History Month, we honor the "first Black woman millionaire in the United States!" Sarah Breedlove AKA Madam C.J.Walker

After a scalp condition resulted in hair loss, she invented her own line of hair care products and regimen called the #walkermethod and used it to become a self made millionaire with an initial investment of only $1.25!

She was not content with just her being a millionaire. She went on to use her company to provide a path to entrepreneurship for other Black women, teaching and employing over 40,000 women. She donated large sums of money to the NAACP and funded scholarships for Black women to attend Tuskegee Institute.

SN: She did not invent the hot comb as some believe. She actually improved the hot comb with wider teeth.

It’s 👏🏾 about 👏🏾 time 👏🏾 "The first major superhero movie with a Black protagonist; the first to star a majority Black cast; and the first to employ a Black writer and director.” We are already obsessed with #BlackPanther - not just because of its captivating celebration of Black stories but also because of @ryancoogler’s award-winning vision for an inclusive world. Raised by a social justice organizer mother, Coogler knows the value of education as a Sacramento State and USC School of Cinematic Arts alumni. He pays it forward in his community as a counselor to incarcerated youth and has an upcoming film about the 2009 Atlanta Public Schools cheating scandal in the works! Ryan proves it’s not a lack of #BlackBrilliance, but a lack of representation in our mainstream media! Let’s demand better ya’ll. via @nytimes#BlackHistoryMonth
